1. 90-day calibrator specifications shown include total absolute uncertainty at specified output.
2. Nominal values for calibration standards shown. Alternate standards may be used if those standards are characterized to uncertainty at least four
times better than equivalent Model 6517A specifications.
3. 1-year multimeter specifications are for full-range input.
